In the midst of the grassy forest, the sky is covered by large trees, and the shadows of the setting sun are scattered in the gaps in the green leaves.

The hooves of a black horse kicked through the ground, neighing from time to time.

With a whip, the horse ran more happily.

On the back of the swaying horse, a man in black was straight, holding a rope, his whole body seemed to be swallowed by cold air, and the dappled sunlight shone on him, cold and cold.

There was always a blank expression on his face, and all the passing scenery couldn't attract his attention.

Suzhou is not close to Gwangju, but it is not far either, and there is a Yiju in between.

Xue Yijian rushed to Suzhou as quickly as possible, just as he rushed from the capital to Gwangju to solve Yaopu for more than ten days.

At this time, before noon, the city of Suzhou was full of people, and not far on the road, a group of people slowly came around a prisoner car.

Cheers, shouts, cries, shouts...... Shake the earth.

In the prison car was a middle-aged man dressed in a shirt with a large belly that had been covered by wide clothes, and only vaguely showed a little obesity.

His hair hung down in a mess, a few vegetable leaves hung on it, and eggs had flowed from his rough and fat face, and his whole body was filthy.

He had a look of fear on his face, trembling at the thought of what he was going to face next.

"Well deserved! Do you think that you can be a thin woman with a little money in the family? It's not like I've been caught! ”

One of the people cursed, waving his fist and trying to go up and hit someone, but another person hurriedly held his hand down and told him not to be impulsive.

"You don't know about this brother." He said, "The thin woman is not the reason why this person deserves to die, he is because he offended the ...... of the Xu Governor's Mansion."

"yes." Another person came over and whispered, "This Wanba is so lustful on weekdays, a few days ago, I actually had crooked thoughts about the concubine of Xu Zhifu, and I happened to be seen by Xu Zhifu, and then I ......"

"Later, I found out that his second uncle's family was not killed by the mountain bandits, but he did it......"

"Governor Xu was really angry when he heard this, so he put him on death row......"

Xue Yijian glanced faintly at the crowd that had already passed, held the reins and stopped in a corner.

The group walked very slowly, and he waited a little impatiently, so he turned around and walked down a remote path, isolating the voices behind him.

At the end of the trail is a gray wall, while in the middle there is a corner, and at a bend, there is another alley.

Xue Yijian only lived in Suzhou many times, but he was very familiar with every street, and after a while, his figure reappeared on the road.

Behind him was still the hustle and bustle of the people who were going to the execution ground with the prisoner car, but the sound was getting farther and farther away.

He didn't look back, and continued to pedal his horse.

When he walked to the door of a winery, suddenly, something came at him from the shadows, and he easily caught it.

It's an ordinary stone, but with a few more patterns on it.

He glanced twice and threw it in the corner, then turned around and turned into the alley next to it.

The black horse stopped at the door of a remote house, turned his head to look at his master, and never left.

Xue Yijian turned over and dismounted, walked to the door with a brisk step, and the door was immediately opened.

A man who looked like a servant poked his head out of the door, looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so he invited him into the house, and he himself came out to lead the horse.

When you enter the house, you will see a large courtyard, with two rows of ordinary side rooms standing on the left and right, and a lobby for guests in the middle.

Three men were watching a game of chess around a wooden table in the courtyard, and they all subconsciously turned their heads when they heard the footsteps.

Xue ...... Master Jian? One of them said in confusion, and reached out and rubbed his eyes, thinking he was dazzled.

Xue Yijian ignored him and walked to the table.

The two people playing chess seemed to be immersed in the chess game, and they didn't even greet someone coming over, nor did they look at it.

A middle-aged man wearing a gray-white robe embroidered with bamboo patterns on the front of the placket holds a white son, and another strong man of his age in a dark blue rippled robe holds a black child.

The two sides were evenly matched, but the strong man was gradually defeated, and his frowning brows became tighter and tighter.

"I'm losing again." He said, putting down the sunspot in his hand without much interest, "It's boring, it's boring!" ”

"You've only been down for a few years, so it's good to be at this level." The gray-robed man said, then stood up and looked at Xue Yijian, "Why is Master Jian here?" ”

"What?" The man who was playing against him found someone coming and hurriedly pulled out the sword at his waist, "Xue Yijian, what are you doing here!" ”

"Come to Bai Jiye, don't look for your room housekeeper." Xue Yijian glanced at him and said lightly.

Bai Ji also smiled and motioned for the man to withdraw his sword.

"It's all a family, etiquette, don't be like this." He said.

Only then did Fang Wuyi withdraw his sword.

The other three men saw that they had something to say, so they found an excuse to leave, while Fang Wuyi was stunned and motionless, sitting on the side and looking at Xue Yijian vigilantly.

Because he was beaten by Xue Yijian, he was beaten unilaterally, and he didn't even have a chance to fight back.

Of course, that was also because he knew he had done something wrong, so he didn't fight back.

It doesn't matter if he was beaten, if Bai Ji was also beaten, such a weak person might be killed by Xue Yijian.

He must protect Bai Jiya.

Thinking of these things, the sword on Fang Wuyi's waist seemed to tremble, calling him to draw the sword, he held it with one hand, and was ready to wait for Xue Yijian to suddenly make a move and then pull it out immediately.

Bai Ji also invited Xue Yijian to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

"Now the situation is very different from before, if the hospitality is not good, I hope to take care of it." He said with a smile.

Xue Yijian took the cup and took a sip of tea.

"You're leisurely, playing chess and drinking tea." He said calmly, but anyone who was a little clever could tell the mockery in his words.

But the housekeeper couldn't hear it.

"When did Bai Ji also be idle? He's busy every day, but he has some free time today. He said angrily, and couldn't help but glare at Xue Yijian.

Bai Ji also smiled helplessly.

"Master Jian, why are you looking for me?" After he asked, he explained, "There are too many people on the street today, and I am afraid that I will be discovered if I don't pay attention when I go out. ”

Xue Yijian raised his eyelids lightly and said lightly: "He's dead." ”

didn't wait for Bai Ji to speak first, but Fang Wuyi couldn't help but interject.

"Yao Pu is dead?" He was amazed and his eyes widened, "What did you do?" Are you that good now? ”

Then wouldn't he be even more unable to defeat Xue Yijian, and what did he say to protect Bai Jiye, even he couldn't protect himself.

The hand that simply grasped the hilt of the sword was lowered.

"It turns out that he is dead." Bai Ji was also thoughtful, touching his chin with one hand, "No wonder I haven't heard any movement from him recently." ”

If Yao Pu is still alive, then he will definitely do something, and at the same time, news will come to Suzhou.

The room attendant was still surprised.

"Why did you kill him all of a sudden? I heard that Yao Pu went to Gwangju, could it be that you went to Gwangju on purpose? He asked, frowning.

His eyebrows are thick, and when wrinkled, they resemble a sword, which complements his own martial arts temperament.

Xue Yijian glanced at him and ignored him.

But Bai Ji also guessed the reason why he did that.

"Is it because of the little county lord?" He asked, "Yao Pu, what did you find?" ”

Wise people have always been more sensitive, he was already a little worried about the matter of the little county lord, and when he heard that Xue Yijian killed Yao Pu, it was obvious.

"No, it won't!" As soon as Fang Wuyi heard this, she hurriedly walked into two steps, "Is Yao Pu a dog?" Can you find this? ”

is such a delicate little girl, who doesn't go out of the door, how can he Yao Pu see people? Is it difficult to return the search for one household after another?

"That's not true." Bai Ji also raised his hand and told him not to get excited, "After all, none of us thought that he would go to Gwangju, and since he went to Gwangju, he can't say anything if he doesn't find out." ”

"Yao Pu is very persistent about what happened back then, and even attaches more importance to it than us, if he finds out something, it is normal."

Xue Yijian nodded slightly, indicating that he was right.

"He arrested someone, so I got angry." He said.
